I really don't even think Collins is better than Leary.

Green seems better than Free though.

I kind of think Collins and Leary are a wash. I don't think Collins is as good as a run blocker, but I think he's better in pass protection. But I wouldn't argue either way because I think the difference is negligible.

I think we need to see Green on the right side before we proclaim him better there than Free. I do like what he has done on the left side in place of Smith. I did not know we would get that level of play from him this year.

Free has one more year on his contract and we save $5 million if we release him after this season, so I'd certainly like to get Green some playing time at RT to see if he can replace Free. Then, that savings could be used to sign another of the linemen long term.

In fact, what I would like to see happen, even though I know it won't, is for Dallas to sign Leary to a four-year deal and let Collins compete with him and Green for the starting LG and RT spots. I think this year shows the value of having more than five starting-caliber linemen and we would have six with Smith, Leary, Frederick, Martin, Collins and Green. Looney appears to be a decent backup who can also step in on the interior, so we'd be in great shape on the line.

He said it's two best linemen.
Skippy has also said before that Collins was THE best O-lineman last year (Better than Smith, Frederick or Martin) on the team. Not sure where he got that idea, but he has said it more than once. He's just cray-cray.

Gabe are you a family member of Dak's? Serious question. I've been on this site a long time and I've yet to see a poster so enamored with a player.

I mean if Dak ends up being a flash in the pan player and disappears after this year are we still going to see you around?

If it isnt obvious to you that Dak is NO flash in the pan, then you are by far and away worse then any Dak homer on the board.

Some people just see it waaaay before others do. Dont bash the rest of us because its more than obvious that this kid is the steal of the draft and our franchise QB for the next 15 years.

It was obvious in preseason. Even more obvious after the first game, and now we are in game #4. YOu should be jumping for joy that this kid is our young QB and that he is doing so incredible. One has to wonder why you arent seeing it. Especially being a Cowboys fan.

By clicking you would have to listen to Shannon's (the horse) mouth. The dude simply cannot speak clearly.

But....to find out whether or not you're right, we'd have to click that link and listen, right?
I, for one, would like to see a reenactment of both of them done by Jonny 5 and Terry from Reno 911 before i watch it.

I actually love the show. I know some of you may think it's rather fake or whatever, I'd rather listen to that than to come on here and listen to all the coaches in here tell me how to move an offense and defense.

6 mins in he said Collins is the best lineman on the team just further gloss his point on Dak being better than Brady

Sensational reporting at its worst...but that doesn't make Skip wrong about Dak. On this, I agree with Skip completely.

I didn't listen to it. That is an indictment on the messenger and forum. It could have been Stephen A. Smith saying the same thing and I wouldn't listen. They may be on point with the message but they will not have a recipient of said message in me.
